Form Guide

Leyton Orient — last 10 games: 8W 2D 0L, averaging 2.60 points per game. Last five: W W D W W. They are averaging 2.30 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. Defensively, conceding just 0.40 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 8 clean sheets from 10 games (80%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in only 20% of their games — a low BTTS rate that suggests clean sheets are a regular occurrence.

Leyton Orient's home record over their last 10 home games: 7W 1D 2L (2.20 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 0.30 conceded per game. 8 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (80%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home.

Across their last 10 games, Stockport County have recorded 5W 2D 3L — 1.70 PPG. Last five: D L W W W. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 0.90 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

On the road, Stockport County have gone 3W 3D 4L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.20 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 1.20 is notably below their overall 1.70 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.

Leyton Orient carry the stronger recent momentum — 0.90 PPG ahead of their opponents on 2.60 vs 1.70. The form data is a point in their favour, and where the price allows, it is the cleaner directional bet.

H2H Record

The H2H picture is flat: the 3 H2H matches we hold have produced 2 wins for Leyton Orient, 1 for Stockport County and 0 draws. Form and model data should carry more weight here. With only 3 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 3.7 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Leyton Orient 1.24 xG and Stockport County 0.78 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Leyton Orient attack 1.006 / defence 0.641 | Stockport County attack 1.023 / defence 0.954. League average goals — home 1.287 / away 1.186. Leyton Orient have a tight defence (rating 0.641), which is pulling Stockport County's projected output down. Data: built from Leyton Orient's last 73 games and Stockport County's last 28.

Result probabilities: Leyton Orient 47% | Draw 30% | Stockport County 23%. Fair-value odds: Leyton Orient 2.13 | Draw 3.37 | Stockport County 4.28. Leyton Orient hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 33% | BTTS Yes probability 38% | Total xG 2.01. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 67% probability — total xG of 2.01 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 62% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Leyton Orient are the pick at 47% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Leyton Orient offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 2.01 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 67% — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Leyton Orient's last 10 home games and Stockport County's last 10 away games) averaging 2.1 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging 3.7 goals per game across 3 H2H matches points the other way.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 62% on No. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Leyton Orient 0% (last 10 home games) | Stockport County 60% (last 10 away games).
